Great Functions, Easy to Use, Amazing Support

By lcpr on April 20, 2024

I have been using MapsMarker for my websites for years. I feel bad for not leaving a review earlier because it has been truly a fantastic experience. I upgraded to the Pro Version and it is by far the best paid plug in I use and well worth it. MapsMarker is easy to use, I have customized a few things to match the look and feel of my site which is great. I just recently moved a site and had a small issue with exporting and support offered me the most amazing customer service with my dummy questions and issues. I gave them access to my sites, which I never do, that's the trust built since I've used MapsMarker for so long. Thank you MapsMarker, keep up the good work. : ) - LC

Free Version sucks ...

By petrusmaximus on February 27, 2021

Paid plugin, free version is unuseable ...

Awful Interface

By Torgut on July 15, 2020

Confusing, awful interface. Didn't like it at all.

Klasse Support

By Karsten (karstenln) on May 5, 2020

Ich nutze die Pro Version. Der Support ist erstklassig. Ich hatte einen Fehler gefunden der innerhalb kürzester Zeit gefixt wurde und eine Anfrage nach Anpassung an Borlabs Cookies wurde auch zeitnah umgesetzt und wird in der nächsten Version verfügbar sein.

ouhahoua

The UI is very heavy. Settings in all directions, warnings for the pro version on a lot of options It gets complicated. Very slow plugin -> Bad UX

12 000 Notices qui apparaissent suite à l'activation de cette extension. Sans parler des tonnes de pub qui pop dans tous les sens...

Great Alternative

By WillOfTheWeb on March 6, 2019

This is a great alternative to using Google or Bing maps. Great plugin and the free version has great features.

Excellent Plugin and Best Support!!

By smack7s on February 8, 2019

We rebuilt our maps and took them live with this plugin during the trial period, and we had support from Maps Marker the entire time. The support was much better than the ridiculously expensive map plugin we previously used, and the plugin itself is excellent! We were able to customize it to our needs, and improve on both the look and the functionality of the old maps. Every time we had a question, we had an answer within 24 hours, which is incredible because we were still in the free trial period. We pay for a few plugins, but this is far and away the best support we've ever gotten. The maps are completely customizable, and there are open-source map options, if you need to save on costs. We really can't say enough good about this plugin. We ended up going with the Pro version, because it's completely worth it for the price. Our maps now look better and our site is lighter as a result. THE BEST MAPS PLUGIN, hands-down.
